Dried onions impart a unique sweet, deep flavor to soups or stews. Or chop them and use as an interesting garnish for salads.

DRYING: When drying onions, use the sweetest, most pungent onions available for the most flavorful results. To dry onions in the oven, peel and then cut into slices 1/4 inch thick. Arrange on a rack on a baking sheet or roasting pan and place in an oven preheated to 150F. Store in the oven, undisturbed, for approximately 3 hours, or until the onions are brittle.
